Outdoor Adventure – Piestewa Peak in Phoenix, Arizona

In how many places can you climb a mountain without leaving the city limits? And don’t start ringing off a bunch of towns already in the mountains. That’s cheating.
On the other hand, if you said “Phoenix, Arizona” you’d be right on the money! That’s because this vibrant Sonoran Desert city is home to Piestewa Peak [...]

Top American Zoos – The Phoenix Zoo

Spring Break Golf Vacations – Phoenix, Arizona

I gave you beaches, mountains, adventure, and a little bit of everything else. Yet, I still managed to overlook one of the biggest Spring Break activities of all: golf.

Family Fun – Rawhide at Wild Horse Pass

This may just be because I’m from Texas, but it seems to me that every boy (and man) secretly wants to be a cowboy, and I’ve found a fantastic place just outside of Phoenix, Arizona to indulge that fantasy: Rawhide at Wild Horse Pass.
Arizona’s largest western-themed attraction for over 37 years (and voted the best [...]

Arizona Golf Vacations – A Charming Green Valley Resort

At USA Travel Guide, we support two types of “green” hotels: those that have gone green and those that get you on the green.
